MEDICINE WITHIN RETREAT
Coming Soon
Reconnect with your natural rhythm and cyclical nature as a wombyn! Learn how to tap into the wisdom of our bodies and unlock a deeper connection to allow her essence to be reclaimed and embodied.
Join us as we unlock the road map to our own empowerment and the sacred feminine within.
The Medicine Within Retreat is a re-membering, an internal calling to our collective body, the wild pulse of life, the dance of sexual expression, and a re-claiming of the feminine faces: crone, goddess, wild women and mother we all embody.
For many of us, feminine oppression has been felt so deeply, leaving us forgotten, hidden, demonized and diminished, which has redirected us to lead from our wounded feminine and responding from unconscious protective mechanisms.
Join us to further understand the power of your moon cycle and feel free to stand in the gentleness of your own feminine energy.
Learn how your cycle offers you the energetics to synchronize the larger forces at play around and within you. From the Wise Woman to the Wild Woman, our intention during these 4 days, is that you will have a blue-print on how to tap into your own medicine within and re-unite with the parts you had once forgotten.
Come re-member, re-claim, celebrate and deepen your connection with self and return to the world embodying all you had once left behind!

Gretchen Yerke
creator of The Epic Connection
Gretchen creator of The Epic Connection, a community and healing collective creating connections for individuals to find holistic practitioners and healing modalities to deepen their relationship with self on a more authentic level.
She is also a trained Sound Practitioner and Embodied Dance Coach. She works individually with both sound and dance as energetic healing art forms.
The vibration of sound has the power to change the molecular structure of the water in our bodies, which not only has multifaceted health benefits, it allows us to move and release energy. Through embodied dance practice, she empowers wombyn to re-connect with their bodies through movement. To move and release stuck emotions through their unique blueprint of expression.
Her process into deep feminine healing has shown her all the ways wombyn have lost themselves and their connection with nature. She is now re-membering the ancient path and empowering wombyn to weave these threads of wisdom back into their blood, womb, and BE-ing. She is guided to share the path of re-membering, re-connection and embodiment with self and the Mother. Gretchen considers her divine calling to be a voice for the Mother within nature and within every wombyn.
We are all connected, and when one wombyn re-members she re-awakens and enlightens pathways for all wombyn to re-member.
Each of our stories are rich with medicine, and when these stories are integrated through embodiment, expression, release, and validation within a circle of wombyn also re-membering, we re-open doorways within the body that liberate vast wells of our power.
If this speaks to you, it is our honor to welcome you to the Medicine Within Retreat, to celebrate you in your unique path of re-membering what has already always been right here within you.
